  RIO DE JANEIRO -- China won its seventh gold in eight diving events at the Rio Olympics, showing off the superpowers depth with a less heralded champion in mens 10-meter platform. Jordan 7 Pantone Release Date .Chen Aisen claimed the title with 585.30 points Saturday night, displaying the greatest consistency throughout the six-round contest. Three times he topped 100 points on his dives, closing the contest with one that earned perfect scores of 10.I never thought I would get this medal for diving and I am still in a state of shock, he said through a translator.Chen hit a back 2 1/2 somersaults with 2 + twists, barely making a splash as he sliced the water for 108.00 points -- the highest score of anyone in the final.Theres a lot of young guns in this sport now, defending champion David Boudia said, and its cool to see them step up their game.Chen had never won a major international 10-meter individual title, having more success in synchronized platform, winning gold in Rio and at last years world championships. The 20-year-old diver gave China its first win in the event since 2004.Its because he didnt really think a lot so he performed well, said Chens teammate Qiu Bo, who finished sixth. His example gave me the feeling that I have nothing to be upset about because its the Olympic Games and its either him or me who gets the gold medal. Its all the same because we are all Chinese.German Sanchez of Mexico earned silver at 532.70 for his countrys first individual mens medal since Fernando Platas won silver on 3-meter springboard at the 2000 Sydney Games.This means everything. A few times people didnt believe in me. A few times people have talked bad about me and now this, Sanchez said. I kept hearing chants of `Mexico, Mexico and this really helped me out a lot. It felt like a Lucha Libre fight, which I love.Boudia took bronze at 525.25. The American was second going into his last dive, but missed on a forward 4 + somersaults.This dive has been like a thorn in my side the past four years, Boudia said. My takeoff is absolutely perfect and I cannot find the bottom to save the life of me, obviously. I chose to do it at the very end of this competition because I wanted that pressure. I live off those nerves. It didnt go my way this time.His score of 68.45 was his worst of the night and he had to watch anxiously for nine other divers to finish before knowing hed gotten on the podium again.Youre doing 18 dives off a three-story building, your bodys beat up, youre tired, mentally exhausted, Boudia said. Im glad to be standing here with a bronze medal around my neck.Qiu earned silver four years ago in London, when Boudia narrowly defeated him. He was second after his first dive and then botched his second and fifth dives, leaving him too far back to medal again.Im a little bit upset about that, but I think it is necessary to have this kind of failure and pain, Qiu said through a translator. This shows the value of the medal and the value of my dream.Tom Daley of Britain, who was third in London, surprisingly didnt make the final. He led after the preliminaries, but finished last among 18 divers in the semifinals.The only gold the Chinese missed was in mens synchronized 3-meter, won by Britain. China settled for bronze to go with silvers in womens 3-meter and 10-meter. Wu Minxia became the most decorated female diver in Olympic history, winning synchro springboard for her fifth gold and seventh career medal.The U.S. finished with three medals, all in mens competition. Boudia and Steele Johnson took silver in synchro platform and Sam Dorman and Mike Hixon won silver in synchro springboard. Jordan 5 Camo Grey . Irving scored 23 points, Tristan Thompson had 20 points and 10 rebounds and the Cavaliers beat the Denver Nuggets 117-109 on Friday night. Jordan 3 Black Cement 2018 Pre Order . This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season. http://www.jordan3blackcement2018.com/air-jordan-13-64/ . Despite dominating possession, Schalke needed an own goal from Nicolas Hoefler for the breakthrough a minute before the interval. The Freiburg midfielder misjudged Jefferson Farfans corner and bundled the ball into his own net. A six-game slate is on tap in the NBA for Thursday, and were here to help you win in daily fantasy contests.Below youll find the players our experts are building their teams around, as well as some players who will be highly owned but should be faded. Our panel today consists of Renee Miller, Joe Kaiser and Kyle Soppe.Players to build aroundKyle Soppe - Giannis Antetokounmpo, Milwaukee BucksLets not beat around the bush: part of the fun in playing DFS is aiming for the big prize. So while most owners turn their attention to a game that features an all-time offense against a much maligned defense when the Warriors host the Rockets, Im building my roster around Milwaukees finest. The Greek Freak dominating (22.7 points, 6.1 assists, 8.5 rebounds, 2.1 blocks, and 2.3 steals per game in November) and I think its sustainable. The versatility is unquestioned and with his usage percentage inside of eight feet increasing for a third consecutive season, this scoring spike is for real. He draws the second least efficient defense in basketball tonight and, with all due respect to Bojan Bogdanovic, who in the world is matching up with him on this Nets roster? Hes expensive...and hes worth every penny tonight.Renee Miller -- James Harden, Shooting Guard, Houston RocketsYoure going to want to attack this game in DFS tonight. With a 230-point over/under, I cant wait to watch it either. Houstons terrible defensive efficiency and the fact that the Warriors are such heavy favorites might drive you to Stephen Curry or Kevin Durant as building blocks, but for me, theyre the stars Im diversifying with tonight. Many of my lineups will feature a very affordable Klay Thompson, but Harden is the star I cant live without. The fast pace and high total here, not to mention what hes doing night in and night out, suggest another easy 60-plus fantasy point performance.Joe Kaiser -- Klay Thompson, Golden State WarriorsShooting guards have had a field day against Houston this season and not many are shooting the ball as accurately or as confidently as Thompson over the past three weeks. Hes a reasonably priced option who has a good chance to shoot his way past his salary value on Thursday. Jordan 3 Katrina 2018. Players to fadeKyle Soppe - Marc Gasol, Memphis GrizzliesTonight will mark the Grizzlies fifth game in seven days, a grueling schedule that doesnt end with an easy matchup as the Magic rank as the sixth most efficient defense this season. The strong defensive metrics are nice (how about some more -- the Magic rank in the top 20 percent of the league in fewest points allowed and field goal percentage to opposing centers this season) and the impact figures to be magnified given that these are two of the seven slowest offenses in basketball. For annual fantasy, I love the well-rounded skill set and high usage that Gasol offers, but a tired version of him in a tough matchup? No thanks, Ill pass. In fact, I have him pegged as the third most valuable big man... in this game!Renee Miller -- Kevin Love, Power Forward, Cleveland CavaliersLove has been on a bit of a tear lately, with three of his past four games being exceptional in terms of fantasy points per dollar. Tonight the Cavs take on the Los Angeles Clippers in a well-balanced offensive and defensive game that should be super fun to watch. However, the Clippers are the NBAs No. 2 team in defensive efficiency and allow power forwards relatively few fantasy points (bottom five). The matchups will be tough for Cleveland up and down the court, and if Im spending up on the Cavs tonight, its going to be with LeBron James, not Love.Joe Kaiser -- Goran Dragic, Miami HeatI like to fade players against Utah because the Jazz slow the pace as much as any team in the league and that means fewer possessions and fewer opportunities in DFS. So why Dragic? Because Im not fading Hassan Whiteside with as well as hes been playing, thats why. Dragic has been the more inconsistent one out of Miamis top players this season, and this matchup against Utah has me looking elsewhere at point guard. ' ' '
